I've beard different feelings ex pressed; but. anyway, you can t keep from laughing when you set your eyes on 'em, I'll wager. There was a man" "Excuse me, but I bare only Just so much time," said tbe traveler. "Will Mr. Simmons direct me to the cas cade?" Tbe old man blinked at blm a mo ment. "I think be can," be answered, "but after you've seen them plaid trousers a little water running over rocks will seem pretty tame to you." A Mistake In the Paper.

"It Is a mistake, my dear," replied the husband; "be died on Monday." "But the paper said Sunday." "I know it, but It was an error In tbe print" "I thought so, too, at first, but I got a half dozen copies of tbe paper, and It was tbe same In all of them. Tbey certainly couldn't bave made tbe mis take over and over again." Tbe husband tried to convince her, but It was no use, and be gave It up. Cheerfulness.

Thinking that mild reproof would not come amiss, I rounded the curve and came upon a very small boy driving a big cow. " 'See here, boy, who brought yo up? I asked. " They didn't nobody bring me up. I walked up-all tbo way from Scar boro driving this - cow.' " LOCAL NEWSPAPER BIBLE STUDY CLUB March 20. 1'JlO A I'aralvtlc Forgiven and Healed Matt. 9:1 -13.
